Patent number: 9594885Abstract: In various embodiments, methods and systems for license-messaging using cloud public-messaging infrastructures are provided. A cloud public-messaging infrastructure supports license message communication between applications. The cloud public-messaging infrastructure may implement license-messaging that circumvents network control units that control communication to the network components. A license-messaging channel is initialized with an on-premise relay service using the cloud public-messaging infrastructure. A cloud-based relay service listens for a license request from the cloud-based application. The license request is pushed using the cloud public-messaging infrastructure such that the license request is pulled through the license-messaging channel via the on-premise relay service to the on-premise license server.Type: GrantFiled: March 6, 2014Date of Patent: March 14, 2017Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Xiang Ao, Mingqiang Xu, Qiufang Shi, Gang Xue

Patent number: 9128780Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for validating license servers in virtualized environments. Embodiments of the invention leverage a set of features acquired or built in cloud computing environments to facilitate a software based solution providing uniqueness and immutability of a license server hosted in the cloud. Avoiding features of the underlying hardware systems results a much more flexible and reliable platform for hosting license servers. Features of a cloud storage service can be used to create a unique ID for a license server. Security and reliability of license servers hosted in a pubic cloud environment is also improved.Type: GrantFiled: February 22, 2012Date of Patent: September 8, 2015Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Gang Xue, Qiufang Shi

Patent number: 8947546Abstract: An apparatus, and an associated method, for facilitating stabilization of a recorded video sequence, formed of captured image frames. Captured image frames are cropped by a frame cropper. Cropping of an image is dependent upon lighting conditions. Upon the occurrence of a low-light, lighting condition, the amount of cropping is altered. And, when acceptable lighting conditions return, the amount of cropping is again altered, all in a manner to facilitate video stabilization.Type: GrantFiled: March 5, 2012Date of Patent: February 3, 2015Assignee: BlackBerry LimitedInventors: Brett Stuart Foster, Bryan Andrew Krawetz, Mark David Rushby, Gael Jaffrain, Sung Ho Hong, Joshua Lucien Daigle, Gang Xue

Patent number: 8790530Abstract: A method and manufacture for charge storage layer separation is provided. A layer, such as a polymer layer, is deposited on top of an ONO layer so that the polymer layer is planarized, or approximately planarized. The ONO includes at least a first region and a second region, where the first region is higher than the second region. For example, the first region may be the portion of the ONO that is over the source/drain region, and the second region may be the portion of the ONO that is over the shallow trench. Etching is performed on the polymer layer to expose the first region of the ONO layer, leaving the second region of the ONO unexposed. The etching continues to occur to etch the exposed ONO at the first region so that the ONO layer is etched away in the first region and the second region remains unexposed.Type: GrantFiled: February 10, 2010Date of Patent: July 29, 2014Assignee: Spansion LLCInventors: Angela T.

Patent number: 8692900Abstract: An apparatus, and an associated method, facilitates capturing an image in an electronic camera without having to wait for an image to settle or the camera to stabilize. Image frames are captured continuously. Data representing captured images is compressed. The compressed files are stored continuously, such that even before a shutter button is actuated, one or compressed image frames have already been recorded. When the shutter button is actuated, the largest of the compressed data files is selected for use, such as display, printing or transmission. Selection is made based on the size of the compressed image file.Type: GrantFiled: April 22, 2011Date of Patent: April 8, 2014Assignee: BlackBerry LimitedInventors: Dmitry Denisenkov, Gang Xue, Sung Ho Hong, Qian Wang

Publication number: 20140060750Abstract: A peeling apparatus for peeling labels in rows from a tape-shaped release paper comprises a main body, a peeling mechanism, a driving mechanism and a sensing mechanism. The peeling mechanism locates the release paper and peels the labels in a row from the release paper when being rotating. The sensing mechanism located upon the peeling mechanism and parallel with the peeling mechanism. The labels in a row are orderly arranged from a first position to a second position on the release paper. The sensing mechanism comprises at least two detectors which are perpendicular to the peeling mechanism. When the peeled labels facing the sensing mechanism, either of the at least two detectors detects the peeled labels at the first position or the second position to generate a pause signal. The driving mechanism stops driving the peeling mechanism rotating in response to the pause signal.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 16, 2013Publication date: March 6, 2014Applicants: HON HAI PRECISION INDUSTRY CO., LTD., HONG FU JIN PRECISION INDUSTRY (ShenZhen) CO., LTDInventors: ZHAO-YONG LI, LIAN-GANG XUE

Patent number: 8660594Abstract: The disclosure discloses a method for shielding a short message receiving function. The method includes the following steps of: storing parameters related to short-message-receiving-function-shielding in an Element File (EF) in a Subscriber Identity Model (SIM) card; performing inter-verification by utilizing the EF in the SIM-card and a Non Volatile (NV) random access memory in a data card to determine whether the SIM-card is applied to the data card; and when the SIM-card is determined to be applied to the data card, reporting the parameters related to short-message-receiving-function-shielding to a network during the process of attaching mobile terminal to the network. Compared with the conventional art, the technical solution of the disclosure can shield the short message receiving function without generating short message fee, so as to enhance the stability of the data service to a large extent and increase the flexibility for a subscriber in selecting the service type at the terminal.Type: GrantFiled: September 25, 2010Date of Patent: February 25, 2014Assignee: ZTE CorporationInventors: Yi Zhang, Gang Xue

Patent number: 8637918Abstract: A memory and method of manufacture employing word line scaling. A layered stack, including a charge trapping component and a core polysilicon layer, is formed on a core section and a peripheral section of a substrate. A portion of the layered stack, including the core polysilicon layer is then removed from the peripheral section. A peripheral polysilicon layer, which is thicker than the core polysilicon layer of the layered stack, is next formed on the layered stack and the peripheral section. The layered stack is then isolated from the peripheral polysilicon layer by removing a portion of the peripheral polysilicon layer from the core section, and polysilicon lines are patterned in the isolated layered stack.Type: GrantFiled: November 10, 2011Date of Patent: January 28, 2014Assignee: Spansion LLCInventors: Shenqing Fang, Chun Chen, Wenmei Li, Inkuk Kang, Gang Xue, Hyesook Hong
